MouseTerm vs MouseTerm Plus

ardecvz opened this issue · 3 comments

Hello, @saitoha!

Could you kindly clarify whether there are any plans to merge MouseTerm Plus' changes into the original MouseTerm in the near future?

(I've faced that vim with set mouse=a and activated original MouseTerm erroneously turn on visual mode on empty lines; in your version it seems to be fixed)

If it's unacceptable, would it be OK to include your version in homebrew-cask repository and possibly simplify future installs by homebrew? And which compiled version from your server should I use - MouseTerm-Plus.dmg or Mouseterm-Plus.dmg (with lowercase T, a more recent version)?

And huge thanks for a really useful piece of software!

Hello, @ardecvz

I can't promise you to do it in "near future". I have sent some PRs to MouseTerm. but the original developer of MouseTerm is now dedicating himself to other projects.
I'm waiting for the day he come back.

Fixed by 186d0c4 .

Yes. I don't have any knowledge of homebrew-cask. Can you work for it?

And which compiled version from your server should I use?
MouseTerm-Plus.dmg
Mouseterm-Plus.dmg (with lowercase T, a more recent version)?

Sorry to confuse you. I checked. Mouseterm-Plus.dmg(lwith lowercase T) is newer.
But I don't recommend to use this package because it is hosted on my private server without ssl certificate.
As an alternative, I uploaded a new package in Github.

@ardecvz any updates on your intentions of submitting MouseTerm-Plus to homebrew-cask?

I'm sorry for my long absence in the thread.

@saitoha As you have already realized, no rush was intended ;) But we should certainly include your work in cask exclusively so users who interested in mouseterm could get a supported version only. By the way, thank you for tagged releases - really conventional!

@ELLIOTTCABLE please feel free to participate in Homebrew/homebrew-cask#7519. I'm not sure about the best way to add SIMBL plugins to the formulae (there're a lot of plugins without installer / uninstaller).

I'll send a pull request with the installation instructions as soon as the cask's team make a decision.
